Please remember this next time you hear Nigel Farage and Reform say we must leave the ECHR to control our borders
🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years”
Hugely important point made by @vicderbyshire.bsky.social 👏

New CBI report shows business investment in Scotland is at a 20-year high.
Despite damaging Westminster decisions like Brexit or Labour's tax on jobs, our economy has many strengths.
